I’m beginning to believe there is an racial angle to this years polling that no one is saying out loud! Most of the pollsters are assuming that there will be WAY more blacks democrats voting because there’s a black democrat in the race. But black folk have been dragged out to vote heavily democrat in every election in recent memory. It’s quite possible that there aren’t many more available black democrat voters than in elections past. This false assumption (of HYPER-INCREASED black turnout) may be one factor in the polls’ over-sampling of dems overall.
